(no subject)

WHO: The Fallen and Shockwave.
WHERE: Shockwave's office at Starwave.
WHEN: IMMEDIATELY.
WARNINGS: Potential violence, typical Decepticon nastiness, that sort of thing.
SUMMARY: Stealing from his fellow Cybertronians isn't likely to endear Fallen to them, but that's not going to stop him from doing it. Fallen stops in at Shockwave's, they argue, and maybe they come to an agreement.
FORMAT: Letters, spaces, and punctuation.

Looking around the room, the Fallen had to admit that Shockwave didn't have a half-bad design sense. He could appreciate the minimalistic angle he'd taken to his office setup. Very simple, very empty - almost reminiscent of the Void, if the Void had been ruled by IKEA designers. As offices went, it was nice.

Even nicer was the selection of advanced and expensive equipment Shockwave had access to.

Sitting at the Decepticon's desk, he flipped through a file folder of orders, occasionally making modifications to incoming shipments and transfers. Some of this could be of use to him, especially when he could get it for free.

POWER TO THE IKEA DESIGNERS!

Staying late and doing work - both for StarWave and personal - was something Shockwave did a lot. Less so, since he'd somehow managed to adopt a human who had little idea as to what everything in the City was. But she seemed to be learning, so getting back to doing serious work was ideal. It helped to keep his mind off of other things, was a logical use of time, and meant he could work on getting even more funds for the Decepticon cause.

What he did not expect working late to entail was walking into his office and finding someone else there. And not just anyone, but the Fallen. Of all people, it had to be him.

"What are you doing?" stay calm. It was just the Fallen. Messing with his things. Probably messing up the very neat and organized order they went in. Nothing to get irritated by.

Orderly and completely simple to tell when he would be somewhere and when he wouldn't... on a good day at least. At times he did have his moments, when keeping to schedule was not always met. Thankfully he did his best to avoid such moments.

"I want an actual answer, Fallen." he huffed, wandering over to his desk and the tank. If the Fallen was around, messing with his things, then he didn't want to have to figure it out later. He wanted an answer then and there, so he could fix whatever the frag was messed up.

No, no he didn't. He knew how well pushing the Fallen went, given how the mech had beaten him up for harassment before. That however, did not mean that he was just going to act like some week glitch and cower at his every word. There would be no fear towards the tank, there was no reason for it, no matter how much it hurt to get beaten by him.

"Hn."

Shockwave leaned up against his desk, looking over at the papers Fallen had taken out.

What. What was he doing with those particular files?

"Must you constantly trouble my things? I am certain getting a job, or hobby of some kind would suit you. At least keep you busy enough to leave my stuff alone," he scowled "I hear the burger places are always hiring."

"Humor? When did I say anything humorous?" Frag if he knew. His creativity was lacking, that he wouldn't have come up with something good. Jokes were mostly lost on him, he barely understood comedy entertainment, and had he actually done anything that even closely resembled a joke, it likely hadn't been intentional. Somewhere inside of that head of his, if he even had the slightest idea of what joke was made and why, he would likely have blamed Starscream's memories.

They could be such a trouble at times.

"And I am not at all attempting to mock anything. You know very well that I cannot get emotional sensations to leave me alone." He would have loved it if he could. Soundwave wasn't coming back, no matter what little hope he had left, he knew it wouldn't happen. Removing them. It would be logical. And if the other did ever return. Then, well he'd find some way to get them back. Getting them back would be much easier than removing them.

Shockwave sighed as the Fallen kept what he was doing out of view. Did the other mech not realize he could just x-ray it if he so desired?

"I am serious, Fallen. Get a job. I am certain that whatever it is you are doing, you could do without using me."

Was he being insulted? He was quite certain he was, and it certainly wasn't appreciated. However, aside from a very bratty hn, he said nothing on the subject. Fine, Fallen did not want to get one himself, then things would have to be planned to see that either he was forced into one, or that he was incapable of getting to the things he wanted that happened to belong to Shockwave.

"I truly do not think beating it out of me will work." what else could the Fallen do besides that? He hardly seemed the teaching kind.

"What exactly could you do."
